Abstrakt: Magnesium is vital in a broad spectrum of physiological processes, including enzyme activity, energy production, and neuromuscular function. Despite its crucial role, magnesium disorders - comprising both deficiency (hypomagnesemia) and excess (hypermagnesemia) - are frequently underrecognized and inadequately managed in clinical practice. Magnesium deficiency is widespread, particularly among populations with chronic illnesses, the elderly, and those experiencing malnutrition, often leading to significant neuromuscular, cardiovascular, and metabolic complications. Conversely, hypermagnesemia, though less common, poses serious risks, especially in individuals with impaired renal function or those receiving high doses of magnesium supplements or medications. This review comprehensively examines magnesium disorders, detailing their pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and management strategies. It highlights the essential functions of magnesium in maintaining cellular integrity, cardiovascular health, and bone structure and discusses the global prevalence and risk factors associated with magnesium imbalances. By offering insights into the current understanding of magnesium homeostasis and its disruptions, this review aims to enhance the awareness and treatment of magnesium-related conditions, ultimately improving patient outcomes across diverse clinical settings.
